23 <h2>Checking the Current Version</h2></a>
24 The version of scram you are using can be found with the command<p>
25 <pre>
26 scram version
27 </pre>
28 <p>
29 <a name=Download>
30 <h2>Downloading Alternative SCRAM versions</h2></a>
31 Once a version of SCRAM has been installed, downloading of other SCRAM versions
32 becomes trivial with the <b>scram version</b> command.
33 <br>
34 If you supply a version number as an argument, SCRAM will check to see if the
35 specified version is already installed. If it isn't then it will attempt to
36 download the requested version automatically.
37 <p>
38 e.g.
39 <pre>
40 scram version V0_9_11
41 </pre>
42 <p>
43 <a name=Default>
44 <h2>Making a version the default</h2></a>
45 Running the <em>install_scram</em> script of a specific version
46 (see <a href=install.html>Installation Guide</a>)
47 will make that version the default.<p>
48 <a name=Over>
49 <h2>Overriding the default Version</h2></a>
50 The default version can be overridden at any time by setting the
51 <b>SCRAM_HOME</b> environmental variable to point to the top of the version
52 required. It must be the full path to the version.
53 <p>
54 <a name=Auto>
55 <h2>Automated Version Selection</h2></a>
56 <em>(Version V0_9_40 and above)</em>
57 Scram can be made to automatically select the correct version to use for a
58 given project area, overridding any other version selection mechanism.<p>
59 To turn this feature on, simply create the file <em>scram_version</em>
60 (of your project development/release configuration directory)
61 containing the required
62 SCRAM version tag. Any scram command issued in that area then gets directed to
63 the correct version if it is installed.
64 <p>
65 If the required version is not installed then a warning is issued, however
66 execution of the command continues in the current version.
